Well the track itself is just at the back of Goshen Park. I've got no idea on bus route numbers as I'm not a Bury local but its just off the A56 so got to be on a major route.

There is a bustop pretty much either side of the road at the Total petrol station. Depending wether you are coming from Bury or Manchester, the 135 is your best bet. only a 5 minute walk or so

Yep, there's a 135 every ten minutes or so.

I can give you a lift in future, since I'm in Abram myself, but I wasn't going this week due to needing a new washing machine.

I don't think anyone would describe my barely functional Focus as a proper car!
At present:
The blowers don't work (no heating/demist)
The central locking doesn't work
The boot uses a totally different key (and won't remote open)
The indicators don't auto-cancel
There is no boot lining
and one of the injectors keeps sticking.

Its pretty much a wreck!
